    Im saying fuck the idea of paying some country reparations for such things that happened. Everyone involved is dead.

      Not at all. There are impacts passed down through generations, which is why we see race-based wealth gaps.

        Romans had Germanics as slave yet Italy nowadays is a lot less successful than Germany…

        Where is that wealth? Where is the poor Germans (and their decents)?

        There has been so much slavery through out history and there still is, only a minority of slaves in total was black or from Africa.

        Im absolutely against paying any “repetitions” as its disgustingly disrespectful to again put a price tag on people in one way or another, we (Europeans) already do much for development globally, this, just like “sending back” artifacts, is just idiotic and absolutely pointless. Where does the money/artifacts go? Exactly, into the hands of corrupt Politicians, Cartels and Warlords. Its unacceptable.
